The use of mobile phones has brought in avenues of business that had been non-existent before its introduction in the Nigerian society, such as Mobile phone repair, Mobile phone repair service centers, Mobile phone retail and Wholesale outlets, including mobile phone accessories and other related wireless products.
Mobile phone handsets being electronic devices are prone to different faults due to hardware and software issues.
From this occurrence, which necessitates rectification, opened up the Mobile phone repair sector within the mobile communications industry in Nigeria and have since experienced a certain level of growth.
In terms of Mobile phone handset retail, problems exist. There are inferior products being sold to the consumer which are termed as ‘cloned phones’. That is fake branded products being sold as the original.
Sometimes they are reasonably priced. Secondly, we have other used handsets sold as new, but are refurbished units from Europe and America moderately priced and last longer than the cloned units.
For the Original handsets being sold, retail prices are on the high side.
Mobile repair is currently being done in Up and coming repair centers where good investment in terms of training and use of special equipment is implemented. They therefore expect a profitable return on any repair done, commensurate with the level of repair.
Majority of the smaller outlets that claim to repair phones have little or no training, hence the repair fee is haggled with a poorer level of service and workmanship.
In order to make a difference with my experience and knowledge gained in this area, the introduction of new products devoid of cloning and affordable to the general public, including after-sale care with improvements is paramount to good and affordable service in the mobile phone retail and repair in the near future.
